I just downloaded the XCode 6.1 seed.
I am have this issue with one specific project.
The project information view is absolutely different.
The General, Build phases sections are all missing.
All I can see is info and build setting.
Anyone else faced this issue?
None of my other old projects has this issue.
It's a sneaky one - you click the show/hide Project Targets List icon and it pops out the Project name and its targets underneath.
Click one of those and you'll get the Build Phases option showing up.
OP's problem was that the Build Phases did not show up when opening the project settings.
Simple Fix:
Expand the left side bar.
Your project file is selected. (in my case it's called "opengl-series")
This is the problem.
You want to select the App. (in my case "CGTutorial")
Build phases now shows, along with the other settings.

I've migrated my app into Xcode 11.
I want to remove legacy resources that copied at Build Phase, but I can't find old Build Phase menu.
Please make sure that you have selected Target instead of Project.
The problem is that you have the project selected (in the "project and targets list", which may be a collapsed pane for your Xcode).
So first, make sure the button to the far left of the "Info" tab shown in your screenshot is toggled on (so you can see your project and targets list).
Then simply select a target. Now you'll see the Build Phases tab. Only the targets of a project have build phases.
Note: If you don't like to keep the targets list shown, you can simply use the popup menu next to the pane's toggle button - which appears when the pane is not shown - to toggle from project to a target.
I have an iOS project that builds and runs fine, but the "Clean Build Folder..." option is disabled. As a matter of fact, it is disabled in all of my projects (all iOS, some in workspaces).
They have not been upgraded from previous Xcode version as discussed in this thread.
To See the Clean Build Folder... option, hold the option key while viewing the Product menu.
What can I do to enable it?
Update:
Almost a year later. Currently on Xcode 6.3. Still no luck.
I tried the following steps.
Preference --> Locations -->
For derived data, click "Advanced".
Inside build location, choose "Unique".
The "Clear Build Folder" button appears again.
I had this problem with a project in Xcode 8, and found that in addition to the setting #ycwjjjj mentioned, I also needed to check File → Workspace Settings… → Advanced… and switch away from Custom Settings to Unique (or Xcode Default).
I'm probably asking a very elementary Xcode question, but here it goes. My layout has no 'Build Phase' tab. I might have inadvertently changed my layout. A lot of tutorials state that you should go to the Build Phase tab and link to a library. Well, I've Clicked on the Target, and the File under the Target, Searched the Toolbar, searched the project settings, Info. When I right click on the Target File I get a list including "Copy Build Phase" and Add Build Phase, but that's not giving me access to the Build Phase Tab. I've tried 'reset to default or factory layout'.....Build Phase Tab. How can I display the layout with a Build Phase tab in the toolbar, and save it to utilize in my projects? By the way I'm using XCode 3.2 maybe it's a version limitation?
It sounds like those tutorials are for Xcode 4. For your version, if you open the target in the sidebar, there should be some groups. Those are your build phases. Just drag the library into the one that says something like "Link Executable", or click the checkbox to add it to your target and it should go there automatically.
I downloaded an ASP.NET open source solution and opened it in Visual Studio 2010. VS is running as admin.
Everytime I switch the solution or a project from Active (Release) to Debug and uncheck 'Optimize code' and save, these changes don't stick. The solution or project reverts back to Active (Release).
Why is this happening?
You also have to change it in Configuration-Manager (see pictures).
I just had this exact issue. The solution ended up being:
Go to Tools ⇒ Options ⇒ Make sure "Show All Settings" in the lower left is checked.
Then, in that same window, go to Projects and Solutions ⇒ General ⇒ check "Show advanced build configurations".
I have no idea why this checkbox was suddenly unchecked for me this morning, but this worked.
This is guessing a little, but anyways:
Most likely, you are using build configurations that don't include your start up project for Debug build.
Look for the 'Manage Build Configurations' (I think, no Windows machine nearby) menu item. It will show you a list of projects with tickboxes on the right to show whether it is to be built in the build configuration.
Switch to 'Debug' in that dialog and make sure your startup project - or the project that your starting the build for - is actually included in the build.
PS It is even entirely possible that the 'misbehaving' project is actually lacking a Debug build (it might have a deviant name, like DebugConsole or something else entirely). In that case, use the Project menu to add a build configuration of the proper name for that single project. Afterwards, check (again) that said build configurations are checked in the 'solution wide' build configuration dialog.
HTH
Changing the properties of a configuration doesn't change the current build configuration. If you open project properties, change from Release to Debug and make some changes, after exiting the dialog, you will build on the same platform as before. To change the platform you're building on, there is a combo-box right above the code - use that. You should have all available configurations in the list. When you open the project preferences dialog, the current configuration will be the default one in the dialog.
I opened the csproj file in a text editor. Noticed there were two PropertyGroup sections which look like duplicates, one was Debug|AnyCPU and the second was Release|AnyCPU. I deleted the second one and the debug one showed up.
Luchian Grigore's answer explains correctly one simple misconception that could lead to this problem and aaaaaaa's answer gives another way of correcting it: there is a dialog that looks like you are selecting the configuration to build but you are actually just selecting the configuration to configure.
However neither of their ways of opening the 'Configuration Manager' actually worked for me -- I had to click on the button configuration manager at the top right of the solution Properties.
(Note that the place where you choose the configuration is called Configuration Manager, whereas the place where you manage the configurations is Properties.)
Having some trouble with Xcode 4 here. Sometimes I hit ⌘-U (Launch Tests) instead of ⌘-R (Build and Run) and it's frustrating for a perfectionist like me when error "Unit tests are not implemented yet in XXXXXtests" remains in the Issue Navigator even after a successful Build & Run.
The question, in a nutshell, is how do I remove or ignore individual issues in the Issue Navigator in Xcode 4?
click on your project in the project navigator, in your Project View you should now have a left view with
Project
your project name
Targets
your target name
your target name tests
you know, where u have all the build settings and stuff
right click on the tests one and delete it
